In this video walkthrough, we demonstrate the power of FormFlow to optimise a cantilever which is subject to both mechanical and thermal loads. We methodically go through the process of setting up our optimisation strategy to understand how the individual physics affect the geometry before combining them both into a single optimisation.

Orthotropy, or not to be?

By Alexander Pluke, CEO Additive Flow That is the question. The pertinent question for users of additive manufacturing, at least.  So you’ve printed a part and it’s failed. FAILED!  Why?  How could this be?  You’ve meticulously gone through all the steps you should. Drawn up your CAD model, loaded up the design domain, ran it through your favorite topology optimisation tool, fixed it (with Magics / Netfabb or a-another) – and printed it with the perfect settings recommended by the print manufacturer.  So what happened?  Well, you...
